Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty Kundra, who is known for welcoming Ganpati Bappa into her home every year with great devotion and grandeur, has decided to skip the celebrations in 2025. The actress took to Instagram to share an emotional note with her followers, revealing that the family will not be bringing Ganpati home this year due to a personal loss.
Shilpa posted a message on her Instagram story that read, “Dear friends, with deep grief we regret to inform you, due to a bereavement in the family, this year we will not be holding our Ganpati celebrations. As per tradition, we will be observing a mourning period of 13 days and will therefore refrain from any religious festivities. We seek your understanding and prayers. With gratitude, The Kundra family.”
Every year, Shilpa Shetty’s Ganpati celebrations make headlines as she warmly welcomes Lord Ganesha with her family, including husband Raj Kundra and children Viaan and Samisha. Her home is beautifully decorated, and she often shares glimpses of the festivities with her fans on social media. However, this year the family has chosen to remain away from celebrations, honoring the traditional mourning period.
Fans and followers have expressed their support and condolences to the family during this difficult time. Social media has been flooded with prayers and kind messages for Shilpa and her loved ones.
Ganesh Chaturthi is one of the most celebrated festivals in Maharashtra and among Bollywood stars, and Shilpa Shetty has always been among the most prominent celebrities associated with it.
